Seven Days Left to Enter Contest!

Brio Magazine, one of my all-time favorite magazines for girls, is sponsoring this really cool t-shirt contest. I thought I'd tell you about it.

Here's the deal. You create a design; any design you like as long as you use only two colors. (In your design, the t-shirt can also be a different color, so that gives you three colors to work with.) You send in the design by September 14, 2007, and according to the Brio website, "The winner and her mom (or guardian) will be flown to Brioland in Colorado Springs, Colo., for a photo shoot. We’ll have the shirt manufactured, and she’ll actually model her winning creation for all Brio Sisses who read the mag."

There are also other great prizes for second and third place, so go ahead and enter! Just make sure to get your parent's permission first.

For more information about the contest and to read the official rules, visit Brio Magazine's website.

News Flash: Girls to Pearls Featured in Indiana Newspaper

Recently, the Northwest Indiana Times (NWI Times) ran a story about Girls to Pearls in the Sunday edition of the newspaper. The article appeared on August 19th. I'm so grateful for the coverage, and I would like to express a special thanks to Jane Ammeson, the Times Correspondent that covered the story, as well as the entire staff working hard at the Times.
